The U.S. government’s cover-up of a Saudi connection in the 9/11
terrorist attacks is receiving new attention because a pair of
legislators—one Republican, one Democrat—recently viewed a redacted
chunk of a congressional report that confirms foreign state involvement
in the plot.

Americans have been told that Al Qaeda acted alone on September 11,
2001 and that there were no state sponsors. In fact, the George W. Bush
administration blacked out dozens of pages of a congressional
investigative report on 9/11 that dealt with specific sources of foreign
support for the 19 hijackers, most of whom were Saudi nationals.

Judicial Watch quickly launched an investigation and in 2005 obtained shocking documents
from the FBI detailing how well-connected Saudis, including relatives
of Osama bin Laden, left the U.S. on specially chartered flights while
most air traffic was still grounded. In all, 160 subjects of the Kingdom
of Saudi Arabia, including but not limited to members of the House of
Saud and/or members of the bin Laden family fled the U.S. between
September 11, 2001 and September 15, 2001.

The records uncovered by JW show that two prominent Saudi families
that fled the U.S. following 9/11 got personal airport escorts from the
FBI and that authorities let other Saudis leave the country without
first interviewing them. The secret Saudi flights left from Las Vegas,
Los Angeles and other major U.S. cities. An unidentified prince in Las
Vegas even thanked the FBI for its assistance, according to one internal
report obtained by JW. Incredibly, the FBI returned to the Las Vegas
hotels with subpoenas days after the Saudi flights departed to gather
information on the royal guests, the records show. Read more about this
in JW’s New York Times Best Seller “Corruption Chronicles.”

This week investigative journalist Paul Sperry reveals that two
federal lawmakers— North Carolina Republican Congressman Walter Jones
and Massachusetts Democrat Stephen Lynch—finally got a hold of the
suspiciously redacted pages of Congress’s 9/11 report. Federal law
prohibits them from disclosing the details, but both legislators said
they were “absolutely shocked” at the level of foreign involvement in the 9/11 attacks. There’s little doubt they’re referring to the Saudi connection.

To make the information public, the lawmakers have proposed that
Congress pass a resolution asking President Obama, who has promised to
run the most transparent administration in history, to declassify the
entire 2002 report. It certainly appears that the U.S. government is
protecting the Saudis. In fact, federal agents told Sperry, a veteran
reporter and columnist, that they were repeatedly called off pursuing
9/11 leads back to the Saudi Embassy, which had curious sway over White
House and FBI responses to the attacks.
